Baby Clinic
The clinic is run each Tuesday morning and is run by our practice nurses and supported by one of our doctors.
Our nurses have been responsible for these clinics since early 2016 following the restructuring of Liverpool Community Health.
Previously the clinics were run by a Health Visitor during which babies were also weighed. However for this service you will now need to attend a local clinic, the following link provides the necessary information.
